Evagoras EVAGOROU

Education: Evagoras Evagorou has received his undergraduate degree from the National Technical University of Athens (Greece), where he obtained the degree of BSc/MSc in Rural and Surveying Engineering. He is a PhD candidate on Cyprus University of Technology in the Department of Civil Engineering and Geomatics.

Professional background / participation in funded projects: Evagoras Evagorou has a research experience for more than 6 years and also specialized professional experience as a Land Surveyor for 9 years from 2012-2021. After his studies he was employed as a surveyor by N.C. Roussos & Associates and locality in Limassol (Cyprus), where he gained professional experience in studying the natural environment, measure land and marine resources, and compiling and evaluating data. Since September 2014, he is employed as a Research Associate (Researcher C) at the Department of Civil Engineering and Geomatics, Remote Sensing and Geo-Environment Lab (ERATOSTHENES Research Centre). He has an active role in involvement in a number of research projects funded under H2020, INTERREG and ECHO, and he contributes in writing research proposals for attracting financing in the field of applied geoinformatics and related subjects. Additionally, he is involved in teaching the courses of Advanced Applications in GIS and Specialisation in Geoinformatics for the Degree of Geoinformatics and Geospatial Technologies (MSc). He is also a member of the Cyprus Scientific and Technical Chamber (ETEK).

Research interests: His research interests include the field of Environmental Surveillance and Geographical Information Systems, maritime spatial planning and natural disaster management. His research interest is comprised in the field of Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems intended for environment, cultural heritage, Maritime Spatial Planning and Natural disaster management. Also, his PhD concerns the Remote Sensing techniques of estimating bathymetry. He has excellent knowledge in AutoCAD Civil 3D, ArcGis software and Agisoft Photoscan.
